another newbie here. thougt i'd try this forum as the threads looked interesting. looking forward to gaining some much needed help. does anyone out there know how to solve my little problem? i've backed up numerous dvds this week and they all start glitching after about 40 mins. bought 10 packard bell dvd+r and made 8 coasters so far. i was wondering whether it might be something running in background, tried task manager but i'm not sure which things to leave alone, or maybe it's the media?
